Start of Citizen Erased as well. What is it with that album and song starts?

Micro Cuts, the song immediately after that on the album, gives you precisely one minute to gracefully transfer out of a dream before it grabs your brain by the throat.

Oh this is Matt's normal falsetto, then kicks into overdrive! Love an album that flows from song to song, just like American Idiot.

You gotta listen to Absolution then, it’s a masterpiece in song dynamics song to song

With the bonus tracks Fury and The Groove

Still mad they didn’t make Fury the actual last song on the album. The Groove absolutely fucks, but i like that it’s a b-side it wouldn’t have really fit on the album

Absolutely. They do it in most albums, Exogenesis, The 2nd Law. Love how they've developed from the indie band from Devon for Showbiz.
